Hi Carol,
Have you looked at www.eolfhs.org.uk ? That site has various photos of churches in the area.

The Church was next to Columbia Market.

Found these prints/photo of the Market - click on "Image source:"

Wondered if the building to the left of the Market in print 2 was the Church?
Old photos can be rarer than hens' teeth!

On reflection, I don't think the prints show any part of the buildings next door - apologies.

Tower Hamlets have a photo (badly creased). It's not online so you would have to visit/contact them
